    The decoded puzzle clearly refers to world-destroying Time.

    What the puzzle says overrules what any conflicting source says.

    I believe it's been settled before, but there's little chance that the binary code translates to coherent text and is also expected to form a sound file or image file. And someone also said the binary didn't even make a full byte of data, if I'm not mistaken. No, the binary is supposed to be decoded to text, and that's what we're working with.
    Also, Mike hinted already that translating the foreign words was on the right track.

    The gif could be related, as it is though it was just a case of finding the message hidden in the picture.

    I'm not ruling out July 16 being relevant either, but it seems like a while to wait, unless it turns out to be an "announce a date then fill in the gaps between now and then" type dealy.

    I'm not talking about the binary message/quote. I'm talking about what Oppenheimer himself said.

    A few minutes after mcrc cracked it I googled the first part and got
    "If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst forth at once in the sky, that would be like the splendour of the Mighty One. I am mighty, world-destroying Time"

    The end of which is closer than the end of Oppenheimer's version.

    If we're really going to throw things out there....if the correct translation is "World Destroying Time"...Mike and Brad were listening to Dark Side of The Moon, which has a song called "Time".

    [/really going out there].

    I think you meant kilobyte, but you're totally correct.
    Nothing else in the binary.

    I still think we're finished until the next message comes out. All I'm seeing now is different people posting torrents of distantly related data.

    But I doubt we can solve it given the current info.

    We know now that the translated binary, closely links to a famous oppenheimer quote. What we can't figure out yet is just how this connects to LP.

    That sounds a lot more like the decoded text we got. Especially since "world-destroying Time" is in line with the translation of the last part, "terra-zerstören tyd."

    Thank you for the correction.

    Yes, it seems that way.

    I'm not even going to attempt to decipher this puzzle........but I have been lurking the boards, and one thing is clearly evident:

    Derek knows something we all don't.

    I know I'm still a noob, but do you mind sharing with us your "secret"??? You keep telling everybody that it HAS to do with mcrc's post. You keep telling everybody to go back to that post because he's "on to something".

    C'mon dude....you know something. Share with us your mystical knowledge :D

    I've played several "enigma" games such as Myst in the past, but nothing was equal to this... and i am talking of a whole game or whole gameS not being as difficult as this sh...

    EDIT: by the way, my signature is the best "retouch" i could give to the Message.
